My motherboard is the ASUS Prime B650-PLUS Currently im running 2x 1tb barracuda hard drives so looking to upgrade to ssd for obvious reasons. Im not sure if more information is needed to properly help me but my budget fits any 2tb ssd at the moment Any advice is appreciated

Are you looking to replace the HDDs? Or keep them and use the M.2 slot?
What are you using the SSD for? Gaming, content creation, etc?

If you're going to use it as your boot drive. Find something that uses TLC and comes with DRAM cache.
Haven't looked for one recently, the last one I bought was a KC3000. Pretty sure it's no longer sold.

If you need DRAM cache
If you don't, I'd pick pretty much anything by Teamgroup or MSI

You don't give us any information about what you're using your computer for, so it's really hard to say.
But, the Western Digital SN7100 is a pretty good deal for the performance you get. Very few workloads are storage bound.
